Emblems in the Free Imperial City: Emblems, Empire, and Identity in Early Modern Nürnberg: Brill’s Studies on Art, Art History, and Intellectual History, cartea 73

Editat de Mara R. Wade, Christopher D. Fletcher, Andrew C. Schwenk
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 mar 2024
Civic virtues were central to early modern Nürnberg’s visual culture. These essays in this volume explore Nürnberg as a location from which to study the intersection of art and power. The imperial city was awash in emblems, and they informed most aspects of everyday life. The intent of this collection is to focus new attention on the town hall emblems, while simultaneously expanding the purview of emblem studies, moving from strict iconological approaches to collaborations across methodologies and disciplines.
